If it is beeping and flashing the light then the heater is damaged. You can get an entire new bed from XYZ for like $60 USD.

Re: broken bed

the display though wont turn on... it is just blank, no black lines no nothing, could it be not showing the display because the heater is broken?

Disconnect one of the wires from the heater and see if it boots but with an error code. If it does then your bed is shorting out the supply circuit on the board causing it not to boot. meaning your heater is toast.

You just need one side disconnected for this test. You just want it out of the system and one wire will do that. Either at the heater, or on mainboard. The two screw terminals are the heater interface.

There is one other cause I know of that will make the lights flash and the beeping. It cant access the sd card. It may have come out of its socket. I have mine on an extension cable inside the pront area so I can get to it if need be. I forgot to put it in once and turned on the system and got what you are describing. If you take out the card and reseat it, it might work. Otherwise you are looking at a power supply issue or mainboard issue caused by the damaged heater.

Re: broken bed

how do i get access to the SD card?

it was shipped via standard USPS shipping and it couldve gotten jarred loose durring the shipping and it fell loose after the second print was done right when the glass broke just a theory.... a game.... nvm not a game theory (lol)

still not working, im gonna order a new bed then ship it to the company for them to fix it, get it cleaned up and sparkling for them to work at, its still not working, i was able to work it loose and pop it back in but no luck
